Morrison Finds a Triple

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante

The dealer was in the process of announcing an all in and two calls after a flop of {4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{3-Spades}. Jim Morrison was the player who was all in from the small blind, having received action from the player in the big blind as well as Will Berry, who was on the button.

With the big blind and Berry having any future action going to a side pot, the big bilnd bet 6,000 on the turn {j-Spades}. Berry went all in over the top for 19,400 and received a fold, prompting him to table his hand for the river with the hopes of winning the main pot after locking down the side pot.

Will Berry: {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Jim Morrison: {7-Spades}{5-Spades}

"I have a straight," Morrison had said as he tabled his hand. Berry's top set was in need of improving to win the pot and score the knockout. However, Morrison would be the one to improve as the river {10-Spades} gave him an unnecessary flush, securing the triple and finding life again as Level 3 begins.
